Public Records Check
- License Found We found a license number on file for Walker Roofing: 004229, but haven't confirmed its current status directly with the Minnesota state licensing board. We recommend verifying it's active and in good standing with the Minnesota state licensing board before hiring.
- Missing Corporation Our automated search didn't find a registered business entity for Walker Roofing with the Minnesota Secretary of State. That doesn't mean the company isn't legitimate. Many roofers operate legally as sole proprietorships, which don't require registration, and a registered business can be filed under a different name, formed in another state, or created too recently for us to match. To confirm how the business is structured, ask the contractor or search the Minnesota Secretary of State directly.
- Business Address Walker Roofing's listed address at 2270 Capp Road, St. Paul, MN 55114 appears to be a business address. This means the company operates from a real, locatable address rather than a mailbox or PO box, which can make it easier to reach them or resolve issues. Many roofers legitimately work from a home address, so this doesn't speak to the quality of their work, license, or insurance.
- 1 Credential Walker Roofing holds these manufacturer certifications: CertainTeed ShingleMaster. These show the company met a manufacturer's program requirements and may offer manufacturer-backed warranties, but they aren't independent quality audits. You can confirm current status with the manufacturer.
- Okay Ratings Across the platforms we identified for Walker Roofing (Google, Yelp, the Better Business Bureau, CertainTeed), the blended average is 3.9 out of 5, which we label Okay. This is a plain average of public customer ratings, not a RooferWatch score. Averages like this can be pulled down by a few reviews or a single dispute, so treat it as a starting point and read the underlying reviews for context.
We verified 3/5 public records for Walker Roofing. The more of a company's record you can check, the more informed your hiring decision.

CertainTeed
Walker Roofing receives mixed reviews. Several reviewers report positive experiences, praising the sales staff's professionalism and knowledge, quality workmanship, and competitive pricing. Some customers describe the owner and contractors as personable and willing to accommodate special requests or unexpected issues discovered during projects. However, multiple reviewers express significant concerns. Several customers report roof leaks and collateral damage following installation, claiming the company does not take responsibility for these issues. Reviewers describe workmanship as sloppy, rushed, and aesthetically disappointing, with problems including improper measurements, unpainted materials, missing permits, and incomplete connections. Some customers report poor communication throughout projects and difficulty getting promised repairs completed. One reviewer alleges a serious billing error where a $1,000 check was submitted as $10,000, causing account overdrafts and credit impacts. Another reviewer describes unprofessional customer service and communication policies. Reviewers note that while pricing may be competitive, quality and follow-through appear inconsistent.
